I am following a tutorial and I've hit a bad patch.
The tutorial has a page that includes setting up a 'Vanity URL' with an .htaccess file.
On activating, it returns a '500 Internal Server Error'.
The Apache_error_log shows:

[Thu Aug 09 09:53:25 2012] [error] [client 127.0.0.1]
Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error.
Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace.,
referer: http://localhost/lr/index_1.php

Could you please unlock the mystery.
I am using WAMP and the server is Apache/2.2.11 (Win32) PHP/5.3.0 configured.

One more small request. My Apache_error_log takes ages to load, is there anyway of deleting the contents or speeding up the loading??

Admin note:
Changed subject more meaningful.

Looks like you have an incorrect rewrite rule.

To clear your log file(s): stop apache and delete.

Steffen I am at the bottom of the food chain when it comes to knowing what I need to know about Apache. I would be grateful if you could expand on how I locate and check/correct the rewrite rule, also when you say 'stop Apache' do you mean put offline and where are the log files, or can the log files be located via Windows Explorer..??

Thank you...kev

Bare minimum you have to know, is where Apache is installed. Default the log are located in .../apache/logs.

The rewrite rule is in the .htaccess, best is to go back to the author of your .htaccess rules.

I managed a bit on my own, I located and deleted the error_logs just before reading you reply, congratulated myself and moved up one step in the food chain. Now for htaccess.
Be back later... kev

Back again Steffen.
I found the 'rewrite module' and it's on.

I can't find a way of dealing with:
[Fri Aug 10 11:12:39 2012] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary. Use 'LogLevel debug' to get a backtrace., referer: http://localhost/lr/index_1.php

I have 1 function:
function logged_in_redirect() {
if (logged_in() === true) {
header('Location: index_1.php');
exit();
}
}
This function is only active when in use in any one of 3 files.

That header is the problem! It redirects to itself with stopping. You built a nice loop. Wink

Bit further up the food chain today..long process.

The error_log was a bit misleading and in the end the actual error lay with an .htaccess file and '/'

Never mind, thanks all.
